This year the event will be a more traditional style of competition but with 6 person heats, each surfer competing in 1 round per day, but instead of only the top (50%) of the surfers advancing into the next round and the bottom ones out of the event, their position in the heat will receive a score from 1-6. At the end of two rounds, the 4 surfers with the lowest points in each division will surf a 4 person final to decide who is the champion.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Registration is Rp 100,000 per surfer and you can follow this link to sign up:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://megatix.co.id/events/grom-patrol-2021" target="_blank">https://megatix.co.id/events/grom-patrol-2021</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you cannot make a payment on-line and want to register, or have any questions, please use our Whatsapp to call +6282340938031 or send email to <a href="mailto:admin@asiansurf.co" target="_blank">admin@asiansurf.co</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Tipi Jabrik’s Grom Patrol is sponsored by the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism and the Creative Economy, hosted by the Halfway Kuta Boardriders, and organized by the <a href="https://www.boardriding.com/associations/asian-surf-cooperative-asc" target="_blank">Asian Surf Cooperative</a> with support by Ombak and PSOI.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Enjoy the recap from the 2020 season <a href="https://www.boardriding.com/news/tipi-jabriks-grom-patrol-camp-and-comp-crowns-2020-champs" target="_blank">here</a> and make sure to watch the video edit featuring 2020 champions below.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: right;">Source: Tim Hain, Asian Surf Cooperative (ASC)</div>
